Totally first class

Prompt delivery , helpful staff and sadly neither saddle fitted my horse, return was easy and the refund wasn’t delayed. If I’m looking for a saddle again, this would be my first port of call

Cavaletti gullet order

Ordering was easy. I was worried as it had to be delivered to Dubai but it was delivered in about 10 days straight to my house with no issues.

Wonderful experience

I have recently bought a beautiful saddle and couldn’t be happier. The condition and quality was as described. The ease of transaction through to delivery was 5 ⭐️ I have sold a saddle also in the past and that process was super also !

My lovely saddles

I have bought a few saddles off you now and they all have been just perfect. Your staff are very helpful and friendly which makes the whole experience a lot easier if you are unsure about anything. I wouldn't buy my saddles anywhere else.

Amazing

I was not able to get a free trial, so I had quite a lot of questions about the saddles, but Saddle Bank was very kind and they answered all of my questions, carefully picked out recommendations, that would suit me and my four-legged friend😁 5 stars for this kind of service!

How the trial works

Saddles are permitted on a 5 day UK mainland trial. Simply add the saddle to your basket and proceed to check out. The trial starts on the day you receive the saddle.
Full payment is taken for the saddle at the point of check out. If the saddle fits – great! No further action required.

Is your fitter not coming until next week? No problem!
Select your delivery date at check out. Please note we recommend having the saddle delivered 2 working days before your saddle fitting appointment in case of any unexpected delays with the courier.

Sadly we are not able to offer a trial internationally at present. However, most of our international clients still find it cheaper to import a quality saddle from UK than to source one in their own country.

Caring for Your Albion Saddle: Product Overview & Recommendations
Maintaining the beauty and longevity of your Albion saddle is all about using the right care routine with premium-quality products. Albion’s leather care range is designed specifically to protect and preserve their saddles’ luxurious leather, offering three essential options:

1. Albion Luxury Leather Soap (500ml)
A mild, vegetable-based soap enriched with glycerine to gently lift dirt, sweat, and residue while maintaining the leather’s natural oils. Virtually pH neutral and free from harsh detergents, it won’t damage or strip the colour from your saddle. Ideal for routine cleaning.

2. Albion Luxury Leather Balm (500ml)
An ultra-conditioning balm formulated from a 200-year-old Swiss recipe. It deeply nourishes and protects leather, restoring softness and suppleness even in demanding conditions. Best used after cleaning with the Leather Soap for complete leather care.

3. Albion Leather Care Kit
Includes:
1 x Leather Soap (500ml)
1 x Leather Balm (500ml)
2 x Sponges
1 x Branded storage bag

This all-in-one set is perfect for those who want a convenient, premium solution for maintaining their Albion tack.

How to Care for Your Albion Saddle
Clean Regularly
Use a damp (not wet) sponge or cloth to remove dirt and sweat. Apply Albion Luxury Leather Soap sparingly to lift grime while conditioning the leather.

Condition as Needed
Once the leather is clean and dry, apply a small amount of Albion Leather Balm using a soft cloth or sponge. This helps restore moisture and keep the leather supple.

Store Properly
Keep your saddle at room temperature, away from direct heat or damp conditions. Always store it on a saddle rack or stand to preserve its shape.

By incorporating these steps into your regular routine, you’ll ensure your Albion saddle stays in peak condition for years to come.
